  • Poke several holes in the sweet potato with a fork or knife.
  • Cook the potato in the microwave for 6 -7 minutes on high, until done.
  • In a small skillet or saucepan coated with cooking spray, cook onions and ham with lid on for about 3 minutes, then remove lid and cook until onions are softened and slightly browned.
  • Split open the sweet potato and top with onion, ham, salt, pepper and butter to taste. De-e-elish!

  • Heat a large skillet (we prefer cast iron) over medium-high heat. Once hot, reduce heat to medium and add oil to pan. Swirl to coat.
  • Add sweet potatoes in an even layer, sprinkle with salt (optional), and cover. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the underside is golden brown. Then flip and cover again. Reduce heat slightly if cooking too quickly. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are golden brown on both sides and fork tender.
